I am no way an expert in these areas - but have you checked the crank shaft position sensor - if these fail (I have had 2 genuine parts fail) the engine won't turn over.

Looking good Mr. Jenner -

Naki and all, after sweating all the way down to Windsor 0 finally got the car re-gassed this morning - pump seems to be working fine and very very cold air comping through. Will keep you posted over time. Good value at £180. Cheers Rob

Before and after photo's from outside.

Collected wheels tonight - photo from the workshop - almost a chrome finish. It is much calmer when lacquered. Will do before and after shots - Very happy with new finish

Naki, I went for the Ebay German option at 179 - arrived 2 days after ordering.

Looks good, won't get it on the car for a couple of weeks. Thanks again.

Hi All, Dropped the wheels off today - back on the 28th, so will be ready for Windsor - cutting it close.... They gave me the old centre caps - I didn't take a before shot - but after 20 years they were not looking great. A good wash, dry and ten meguairs ultimate compound, followed by autoglym HD w...

Not sure on pricing - but had mine welded and repaired.

You may have already done this. But my x300 has a nasty habit of not starting - especially just before a JEC event... Anyway, the CPS (Crankshaft Position Sensor) keeps failing. It's very unusual to have the number of failures I have experienced. But they will prevent the car from starting or cranki...

Hi All, I dropped a set o fly XJR alloys off at a diamond cutting specialist today. They have called and said the only solution is a re-paint, they can't diamond cut them. Since that call, I have spoken to a specialist in Birmingham who has recommmended ceramic polishing. But they send them off to B...

Naki or anyone - have any of you used the e-bay supplier from Germany??

I have found a UK supplier - autodoc - https://www.autodoc.co.uk/lucas-electrical/7838730#

Anyone used these before. Cheers

Thanks Naki - looks like a good option - really odd, was coming from the front of the pump. Rather than from the belt, but cut belt, and pump is seized solid - will keep you posted. Might be a warm summer

Morning All, Decided for a morning run in P500 this morning, approx 3 miles from home, strange belt squeak/shearing noise and engine stalls when I dip the clutch.... Engine will turn but won't run. With lots of throttle get it to start and rev at 3,000 rpm. Not sure how much of the clutch is left bu...

Just FYI - my forum windscreen badge arrived - so see you there. Cheers Rob

EBC Discs, callipers, front brake hoses and pads on - need to run-in. See how they go up Prescott (see you all there that are attending). Cheers
